Subject Re: [firebird-support] newbie: IB6 to firebird 1.5: gbak results in unavailable database error
Author Nobuya Higuchi
I'm currently disabling hyperthreading of the machine, so that shouldn' be
the cause.
I thought FB 1.5, not FB 1.0, works ok with multiple-processor machine or
hyperthreading.

I read the release note and install note and I thought I followed the
described procedure.
And still I get the error.
That's why I think I'm missing something obvious that doesn't even make
install note documentation.
